Option Buttons; Delay Wash; Fabric Softener; Extra Rinse - LG WT901CW Owner's Manual

OPTION BUTTONS

Your washing machine features several additional cycle
options that customize cycles to meet your individual
needs. To use these options, select the desired option
AFTER selecting the desired cycle.
After selecting the desired cycle and settings, press
the cycle option button(s) for the option(s) you would
like to add. The button will light when that option is
selected. If the selected option is not allowed for the
selected cycle, the chime will sound twice to alert you
and the LED will not illuminate.
NOTE:
•
To protect your garments, not every option is avail-
able with every cycle.
• If the START/PAUSE button is not pressed within
five minutes to start the cycle, the controls will shut
off and all settings will be lost.

DELAY WASH

Once you have selected the cycle and other settings,
press this button to delay the start of the wash cycle.
Each press of the button increases the delay time by
one hour, for up to 19 hours. Once the desired delay
time is set, press the START/PAUSE button to start the
delay time.
NOTE: If the START/PAUSE button is not pressed to
begin the delay time, the washer will automatically
shut off after five minutes and all cycle settings will
be lost.

FABRIC SOFTENER

The fabric softener is dispensed in the final rinse.
This washer is designed to save rinse water by using a
more efficient rinse system in NORMAL and HEAVY
DUTY cycles. Press the FABRIC SOFTENER button to
change the final rinse to a regular rinse so that fabric
softener is most effective.
NOTE: Select the FABRIC SOFTENER option or use
the EXTRA RINSE option if liquid fabric softener is
used in NORMAL or HEAVY DUTY cycles. Failure to
select one of these options will greatly reduce the ef-
fectiveness of the softener.

EXTRA RINSE

This option will add an extra rinse to the selected cycle.
Use this option to help ensure the removal of detergent
or bleach residue from fabrics. Liquid fabric softener, if
used, is always dispensed in the final rinse. Pressing
the EXTRA RINSE button twice will add two additional
rinses to the cycle.
NOTE: You cannot select the Extra Rinse option with
the Spin Only or Tub Clean options.
USING YOUR WASHING MACHINE

WATER PLUS

Use this option if you wish to add more water to your wash
load. This option is especially useful for large or bulky loads.
NOTE:
•
If the washing machine reaches its maximum water
level, the WATER PLUS button will have no effect.
•
You cannot select the WATER PLUS option in the
Tub Clean and Bulky cycles.

SIGNAL

The washing machine plays a melody when the wash
cycle is finished. The buttons make a sound each time
a button is pressed. Use this option to adjust the vol-
ume of the melody and button tones.

CHILD LOCK

Use this option to disable the controls. This feature
can prevent children from changing cycles or operating
the machine. The feature does not lock the lid. Once
the Child Lock is set, it must be deactivated before
any controls, except the POWER button, can be used.
Once the washer has shut off, the POWER button will
allow the machine to be turned ON, but the controls
will still be locked. When the controls are locked, CL
will display alternately with the estimated time remain-
ing. Press and hold the SOIL LEVEL button for five sec-
onds to activate or deactivate Child Lock.
NOTE: Once the controls are locked, they must be
manually unlocked to restore operation.

ADD GARMENTS

Laundry may ONLY be added to the load at the
proper time in the wash cycle. When the ADD GAR-
MENTS light is illuminated, it is safe to pause the cy-
cle and add more items to the load. If garments are
added when the ADD GARMENTS light is off, the
washer will not adjust for these items which could
result in poor performance and/or fabric damage.
1. Press the START/PAUSE button to pause the
washer.
2. Open the lid.
3. Add your additional items.
4. Close the lid.
5. Press the START/PAUSE button. The cycle will
resume.
NOTE: If the washer remains idle for nine minutes
after pausing the cycle, the water in the tub will drain.
